Calcio Padova - Verona

Calcio Padova look to build on their opening weekend success as they welcome Hellas Verona to Stadio Euganeo for this Serie B matchday 2 encounter on 29 August 2026. Having secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Pisa in their first league outing, the hosts appear settled and ready to test their credentials against a side desperate for a response. The expected XI for Padova features a front three of Gianluca Caprari, Mattia Bortolussi, and Luca Zanimacchia, tasked with unlocking a defense that struggled to contain Ascoli Calcio 1898 FC last time out.

Hellas Verona arrive in search of their first league points following a difficult 2-1 defeat in their season opener. With Amin Sarr leading the line, the visitors will look to tighten their defensive structure after a challenging run in the Coppa Italia and league play. The two sides last met in Serie B on 20 January 2019, where Padova dominated in a 3-0 win.
